    I had ordered custom birthday donuts and then never heard back. I stopped by to see a sign on the door saying they were closed over the weekend (including the Saturday that the donuts were for) I panicked- the owner happened to be in the store and explained they were having a change in management and apologies profusely, but my order was never recorded. He stepped into action and made sure someone came in to make my order. They communicated every step of the way and when I arrived to pick them up, I was helped by the son of the new manager and was amazed by their hospitality. We have been coming to this donut shop regularly with our boys, but this new management makes me want to frequent them more and share my experience. The new management apologies again and bent over backwards (including handling this mess on their first day) for us!

    As a transplant, I am always on the hunt for kolaches. These def are not a 'Texas kolache' but they are overall pretty good. I'm not a fan of the cheese on the top personally but it will help scratch that craving if you're missing them. The maple donut stole the show! Hands down the best one we had! Would def come by to try more of the menu.

    I Stopped by this local donut chain on University Blvd. I only tried the kolaches so this review is in regards to those. Being from Texas, I am always in the lookout for kolaches and was excited to see they sold them here! While not quite like Texas, they were good! The sausage was great quality and the bread was soft and well made. The vibe is casual and welcoming and the lady at the counter was very nice and provided great service. I need to go back and try their donuts but will definitely be back for a kolache when in the neighborhood.

    We Knead Donut is a perfect place to grab a box of donuts. I stopped in a bit before 8am and got a 1/2 dozen which was about $13. You can choose from the classics, or opt for something a bit fancier. I had the red velvet cake donut which was rich and moist! Note that it's best to approach the store heading south on University as there is no parking on the right side of the road heading north.

    I make a quick stop at this newest location of We Knead Donut on University in Bonnie Brae neighborhood on my way to take my daughter to work. It was a beautiful late morning on a Sunday. It was such a perfect day to grab several delicious donuts. The colorful store front welcomed us upon arrival. "Now Open" flag was smiling at us. Without wasting time, we stepped in to see what the store still had (at this point, I kind of thought that some of the flavors might be out.) Red Velvet were all gone. Ones that were low were pumpkin, salted caramel. We were able to grab the last two of the pumpkin ones. We also got the chocolate, apple something, a few others (forgot what we got.) I only got to taste the pumpkin and apple ones. Their donuts are not too dense; they are somewhat airy and yet not too light. The sweetness was just right so it's not going to give you any of that sugar-overload feeling. Young man in his mid-teen was super professional and prompt to assist us. We were in the store for less than 5 minutes. Store interior is simple and yet colorful enough to know that you are in a donut place. Very clean as well. This place does offer other choices such as breakfast burritos and boba teas. We got 5 donuts, and the total was barely $12. Not bad at all!

    My partner and I recently tried this spot out as we had a craving for donuts and a kolache. We have tried almost every place in/near Denver that offers kolaches and they are not like what we are used to back home. Places want to put their own twist on them and then call them "kolaches". Here at We Knead Donut, they have "Texas Kolaches" which I already knew off the bat they were not in fact those..and they weren't, not even close. Got one of both- the cheddar and the jalapeño cheddar. They were slightly better than other places that sell them, and I'd go back if I was really having a craving. Also they have ham and cheese kolaches which are new, but they didn't have any available when we went so we want to go back to try that kind. I would definitely recommend taking the "Texas" part off the menu, because that's false advertising lol. We were so hungry I didn't take any food pics so I'll definitely have to add them next time! Donuts were good, got a red velvet (my favorite) cake donut, a maple bacon one and some donut holes. The maple bacon donut was the highlight of everything we ordered, it was so delicious! The lady at the register was nice and it was clean inside. It's off a busy road (University) and I can only imagine street parking is very difficult sometimes..it seemed we got very lucky parking that day. I'm not in a rush to go back, but I would go again and try other options from them, and get another maple bacon donut forsure.

    Happy National Donut Day! This awesome place opened about a month ago - but this morning was my first time in. It was easy to find with the banner and balloons. It's very light, bright and welcoming inside as well. There were a few people ahead of me in line, but it moved very quick (they are super efficient). The assortment of donuts is awesome - from your traditional glazed, to strawberry, and Reece's donuts. They also have croissant sandwiches, I went with the bacon, ham and cheese, and warmed it up myself (they will also warm it for you if you want to eat it right away). The croissant itself was delicious, with the right balance of meat and cheese. I met one of the owners (she helped with the donut assortment/selection), she's extremely nice and friendly, and mentioned she owns the business with her husband. If you haven't been here yet - come check it out!!

    A cute little stop for something sweet or a delicious freshly made breakfast burrito. The staff is very friendly and cheerful and the wait for a fresh burrito is impressively quick. Stop by and give it a try.

    Wow! These. were. SO. good! I had these donuts ordered and didnt get to eat them till 8 hours later and let me tell you, they wrre still so fluffy and airy! We got the Fruity pebbles, Cronut, Strawberry glaze, and we were surprised with some glazed donut holes! (they were also amazing!) The fruity pebbles was my favorite: it was tasty, sweet at a perfect level, fluffy, and airy within every bite. The strawberry was also delicious and the cronut was one to def try out! Def recommend this place! 5/5!

    Maybe I just visited on an off day, but the donuts were so dry they were inedible. I had to throw them out :(

    3.5 Stars. Went here…read moreper some recommendations on Reddit. I went with 2 sandwiches, The Brooklyn (Pastrami and Swiss cheese with pickles and a red sauce (thousand island ish), on a pretzel bun) and a Parisian (Ham, pickles and butter) on a baguette. The sandwiches were pretty tasty. A bit skimp on the meat though. The bread was great! Best part of the sandwich, for sure. They weren't super expensive either, $14.00 and $11.00. Not bad. I would come back and try other sandwiches if I lived nearby.

    MAINLY REVIEWING SANDWICH EXPERIENCE:…read more I'm not sure what's happening to me at these fancy places close to where I live, but this sandwich at Goudy's Deli SUCKED. Yes, I get it, you have fancy bread and meats, but when you serve customers a sandwich with A VERY-HARD-TO-BITE BREAD it makes you never want to order there again. Maybe the Lord did me a favor by making me realize how pointless it is to eat out nowadays. Ordered the Club sandwich and realized I make a WAY BETTER one at home. Hey, at least I don't serve myself a sandwich with hard ass bread. Maybe I should be thankful? Note to self: don't waste money on food that hurts your teeth and roof of your mouth. Ambience? Definitely for rich, lazy people who don't know good food. Too quiet inside. Definitely NOT for cool people who have personality and are loud. Like Italians.
